Most of the parents are staying at the Embassy Suites 555 N. Westshore Blvd in Tampa it is 15 min away from the stadium. The price is 145.00 per night which includes breakfast buffet each morning, in the evening from 5:00-7:00 they have free appetizers/bar. The rooms includes a kitchen,living room with pullout sleeper & then a seperate room with 2 queen size bed, they are very nice...

Anyone staying downtown? Thinking about booking in a more central location to all the festivities vs Westshore area.

I booked the Sheraton Riverwalk for $81 a night on Hotwire. If you book on Hotwire you don't know the hotel you're booking so I always go up one star category above what I'd normally settle for and it always works out.

You sent me a PM, but I thought I'd just reply here for everyone else.

Anyhow, there isn't a huge difference from staying at either location as far as mobility goes. Westshore and downtown are just a few minutes down one road from each other (Hwy 60/Kennedy).

Westshore will probably give you more access to restaurants and shopping. Staying downtown will possibly, depending on hotel, put you in walking distance to Channelside...which you can then take the trolley to Ybor City.

Both have easy access to I-275 for getting around quickly.

Thanks for the info, Downtown a safe place to walk at night like 12 or 1ish?
